"Order missing items" function

I was creating a few air wings with nothing but precision bombers. I couldn't create them because it said I didn't have enough trucks and had a button that said "order all missing items" so I clicked it. I ended up with a bunch of weapons from immediate order and still no trucks. Just over $400B in weapons, actually. It ordered helicopters and drones and their ammo. What's up with that? I don't want those! I want my trucks.

Ouch. That's painful.

If i was you, i'd email gamemaster@simcountry.com and let them know of this.

It's better to email than to post on forums about bugs like these.

It's prolly a bit late now, but I imagine the game ordered the stuff needed to complete the default set up of the airwings you were trying to create hence you getting drones and helis. You may have had enough trucks for the default set up, just not enough for the 100% PB wings.

Yeah I am thinking that is what it did too. I don't know why the function would work that way when it was obvious what was missing to complete the design I entered. Alas, I won't use that function any more. An immediate order for 10k trucks is no big deal. An immediate order for low quality weapons that I never use is not a good deal.

This feature was intended for use only by inexperienced players getting into their first few C3 wars.
We'll add some information in a confirmation dialog so it will be very clear what the feature does.
